A number of the roughly 515 PECO customers who lost electricity shortly before the Philadelphia Eagles Thursday Night Football game had one question: will power service come back in time for the game?

LevittowNow.com readers in Bristol Township’s Levittown and Fairless Hills sections started asking about the power outage shortly before the game began. A few even voiced concern they might miss the game between the Eagles and New York Giants.

However, PECO crews came through and restored service moments before the 8:20 p.m. kickoff.

A PECO spokesperson was not immediately available to comment on the cause of the outage.
